About Get Goat Wise | Homestead Livestock, Raising Goats, Chickens, Off-grid living
Ranked in the top 2% of podcasts globally. Are you serious about raising goats but tired of advice that doesn't hold up in real life? Are you adding goats to your ranch or homestead and realizing they require different infrastructure, nutrition, and management than other livestock? Do you want fencing, feeding, and production systems that work under pressure? You're in the right place. I'm Millie Bradshaw, Animal Scientist and rancher. I grew up in the commercial cattle world, earned a Master's Degree in Animal Science, and now run a forage-based meat goat operation integrated with cattle in the high desert. We've built the infrastructure, refined the genetics, managed the forage, and learned firsthand what works — and what fails — when you're responsible for animals in a demanding environment. On Goat Wise, we talk fencing that actually contains goats, feeding and mineral strategies that make sense for your operation, genetics that match your environment and your goals, and the kind of steady decision-making that holds up when conditions aren't ideal. Production-minded livestock management for people who are in this for real. If you're ready to build systems that last, welcome to Goat Wise.

130 | How Goats See the World: The Biology of Goat Vision
Published 5 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Goats tip their heads. They'll be looking at something, a piece of equipment, a dog, you standing there, and they just cock their head to one side. I see it all the time, and it makes me smile every time. Endearing, I'll admit it. But it turns out there's a reason for it, and once I understood the reason, the whole picture of how goats see the world started to click. Their pupils are horizontal. Not round like ours, not vertical like a cat's. Horizontal. A wide, flat rectangle. That's not unique to goats, by the way. Most of the prey animals you're already working with have some version of this. […]
